Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Otter in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.

I’m no expert but I think I’ve found the best way to tame these guys. All you need is an Argentavis and 5-8x primitive spears. Our plan is to snatch the otter from the surface of the water with the Argy’s mouth grab (click right stick or C on pc). This part might seem a…

I have 6! 4 of them are common colors, 1 is green and magenta, and the other is pink and purple!

Okay, so the way I tamed them is simply by first: kill any dinosaurs near it or in range of otter, next eat a rare flower, then it will come up to you and nibble on your argy…

Ark Mobile: If you're able to I highly recommend a mining cap for the otter. Makes it easier to find and an amazing night light. If he's on your shoulders the light works best in third person. That way you can still wear a good helmet, still see at night, and still…

Once tamed, keep on hunting even at least coelacanths at first. I had one which for some reason despawned. When he slaughters a fish (any fish) he takes at least 4 silica pearls and for every 3-6 fishes he kills he gathers at least 1 or at best, 3 black pearls. Very useful at…

There is a small river/lake place near green ob there are no threats there I found 5 there on an official Xbox server thehundreadcrossark7 if you wanna join just go to official legacy servers and type in ark 7

Nightmare to find! Quite rare! Find one then, Spear/kill fish, then drap fish (pref salmon high lvl) to it. Mind the piranha etc... best shoulder pet imho! Gives huge boost to heat & cold climates.

Put it around your shoulders. Keeps you hot when you're cold and cold when you're hot. He'll even fetch pearls for you and look adorable doing it.

Guys!!!! Otters DO keep u cool in heat waves and other places. Tested it by going into the volcano w my otter. Not sure if it works in scorched earth, (haven't left the island yet...) Up so peeps can see!

One thing I see people haven't been talking about regarding these cute little guys is that their insulation also makes for good egg hatching. Of course, for max efficiency for this you need a group but they do help!

1. Make taming pen

2. Tame argy and get saddle

3 kill fish ( on mobile feed it actual raw fish meat )

4. Find one in river near redwoods

5. Argy it and tame your it in pen

Good enough fish hunter, though not as effective as Ichthyornis since it can’t one-shot fish & doesn’t give them a prime boost. However, it can get silica & black pearls when killing fish. If it has pearls, you’ll be notified by an animation.

Does this happen to anyone else????: I put the otter on wander and put it on wander but it js swims in a circle and doesn’t collect anything??
